The attackers attacked a well-known DeFi merchant, Sisyphus, by sending an email containing malware.

According to information from October 30, DeFi merchants have often claimed to have received a bogus email containing a PDF file. Unfortunately, we have already opened the link. Yesterday (October 29, 2021), Twitter user @ cryptofan777 announced that he received an email from DeFi reseller Sisyphus who stole the NFT Pebble DAO ad. According to the content of the email, there is a short contract for the future SAFT token of the Parallel DAO project. At the same time, this email is neither written nor signed. The customer acknowledges that he opened the PDF file by saying, “This looks like a problem. It is understood that at least three blockchain-focused VC firms were the target of this attack and the same emails were sent to Sino Global Capital, Sneaky Ventures and County Capital. In fact, Sisyphus immediately announced that the email was not from there and warned users who received this email not to open the email or click on the link. (U. Today)
